Mean Mr Mustard - Enchanted Polish & 1-Up - Dollish Polish

HI!!

I know I'm a little late to the party, but I thought I better show you what I wore for St Patrick's Day yesterday. I didn't have time to create anything for it this time, but I had just the polish to fit the bill that has a perfect green-gold shift to it. This is Enchanted Polish 'Mean Mr Mustard'.

'Mean Mr Mustard' is one of those magical multichrome polishes that Enchanted Polish is just so darn good at. And just like others, I couldn't cut down the number of photos to show you, so take this as your friendly warning ;)

Right let's start with the golden side of it. If you have a look at my ring finger, 'Mean Mr Mustard' goes from being (top to bottom photo) an antique gold, through to bronze and even to a foily gold. I love the more bronze look in the middle photo. So rich and luscious! Also check out the scattered holo. MMMMmmmmm.

For the slightly more St Patty's side of it, behold the bright greeny gold that appears at certain angles. You can see it a bit on my index finger, but it's easier to see in real life.

'Mean Mr Mustard' turns blue at extreme angles and, boy, is it hard to capture! You can kind of see the aqua/blue appearing on the tops of each nail and on my index finger. It's so pretty, but you'll just have to take my word for it, or even better, have a look for yourself :)

So this is the final way that I wore this. I wanted a little extra festivity so I just added a quick accent nail with one coat of Dollish Polish '1-Up'. Check it out - it made a little four-leaf clover in the middle! Love it.

On to the formula, 'Mean Mr Mustard' is a little sheer but oh so buildable. Three coats gave perfect coverage and it's nice and thin and really easy to work with. '1-Up' gave nice coverage with one coat and I think you could probably get a bit more or less on your brush if you wanted.
